In the past there was less students in the school and less teachers because the school wouldn’t of been as big as it is know as none of the extensions had been built. In the future I think the school will be even bigger with around 5000 students and 1000 teachers

If anyone has any ideas on how i could improve my sentence please say.

DREAM Act
What is the DREAM Act?
The Development, Relief, and Education for Alien Minors (DREAM Act) is a bipartisan legislation to address the education disparity faced by young people who were brought to the US years ago as undocumented immigrant children but have grown up in the US, attended high school, and are law-abiding citizens, of good moral character.

Why do we need the DREAM Act?
Each year, approximately 65,000 undocumented students graduate from high school and attend college. Even though they were bought to this country as children, their resident status creates a barrier to higher education and their opportunity to have access to the “American Dream.”

What are the requirements? Who would qualify?
In order to qualify, the student has to have been brought to the US more than 5 years ago, when the child was 15 or younger. Under this Act, when the student graduates from high school, he or she would be allowed to apply for conditional status, which allows up to 6 years of legal residence. During this 6-yr period, the student would be required to graduate from a 2-year college, complete at least 2 years towards a 4-yr degree, or serve in the US military for at least 2 years. The Act also eliminates a provision that forbids states from providing in-state tuition to undocumented immigrant student residents.

What states have already passed laws similar to the Dream Act that allow undocumented students to attend college and post-secondary institutions?
Texas, California, Utah, Washington, New York, Oklahoma, Illinois, Kansas, New Mexico, and Nebraska.
In all 10 of these states, the student: attended school in the state for a certain period of time, graduated from high school in the state, and signed an affidavit stating they will have applied to legalize their status or will apply ASAP.

What would be the benefits?
Would significantly reduce the drop-out rate of immigrant students.
Eliminate barriers to access higher education for immigrant students.
Increase in tax revenue due to fewer government expenses.
Would significantly increase the income of immigrants including spending and investment.
Would make these young people eligible for work authorization and therefore employ thousands of people.
Money paid to schools would increase state revenue.
Rewards hard work, integrity, and character.

What is the current status of the act?
Since 2001, the DREAM Act has received more and more support. In May 2006, it passed the Senate fully as part of the Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act (S. 2611). It continues to have bipartisan support. For the first time this year, there is strong support in both the House and the Senate.

You wonder why I think that you don't care about me? Everytime you hurt my feelings, you think I'm being too sensitive and when you see me sad or upset..you don't come to ask me what is wrong and you never follow me, you just go about your business not caring how I feel. I am always the one going after you, trying to solve the problem. If I had not gone after you so many times, would you have even come after me? I am so hurt right now because of everything in my life, but mostly I am hurting for you, because I do love you with my whole being. I know that risks are involved in love, including getting hurt. I just don't understand why you hurt me, knowing how I will feel. You would be mad if I did what you did if a guy walked by, would you not? So I don't understand why it is okay for you to do it to me. I respect and care for you too much to want to ever hurt you or cause you pain. When you are sad, I feel sad. I only want to see you happy and I want the absolute best for you.

No wonder the US is losing jobs overseas, they write the English language better than we do! Is it laziness or pure stupidity? And who will be the first to misspell a word in their answer?

Lamento que el enviarme mi regalo de cumpleaños el m** te cause problemas.
Por otro lado pensé que la relación con R**, era solo de amigos. Y que pronto se separarían, al menos eso entendí en uno de tus emails..
Espero que la factura no te meta en problemas.
Lo que no me gusto es que R** haya abierto tu correo personal, pero en fin aun no se bien la relación que tienes con ella.
Por otro lado menos mal que dhl siempre se equivoca en apuntar los datos, sino quizás me hubiera hecho todo un lío por teléfono. O quizás al quién contestaba. Me pregunto y si hubiera sido algunos de mis papas, se armaba una grande aquí. Pero gracias a dios no paso a mayores.
Por otro lado espero que las cosas se aclaren, y decidas, si te quedas con ella, o si te quedas con mi hermana.
Yo como amiga particularmente prefiero que te quedes con mi hermana así tienes más paz, y puedes estar más tiempo con tu hijo. Espero que lo estés viendo.
Quizás el destino te haya puesto una prueba para que decidas que camino seguir.

If you did succeed, please can you tell me what your methods for learning were. Did you study at a college or did you manage with self-study? I would particularly be interested to hear about experiences studying so-called 'hard' languages for native English speakers to learn.
I am 35, and for the last 2 years have failed in my attempts to learn Korean. I have alot of exposure to this language in my daily life, and I would love to understand even a little bit.
